“Take heart, she seems to say. The world has been on the brink of ending before. The dust has always been waiting to swallow us. People have always struggled and suffered. Your poverty is not shameful. It is not a failure of your character. Life, by its very nature, is precarious. And your struggles are never for nothing.”

“The water was running in the sink. I don't like to hear water running. I get the feeling that time is passing, that the globe's resources are being used up. I get the feeling I'm losing something.”

Take care when you scratch.”
